Hi! I've just downloaded a program, what decodes encoded SVGB files into normal SVG. Thats good, but this is a command line application, and uses inputs like this: svgb.exe "Entry01.svg" "Entry01.svg" svgb.exe "Entry02.svg" "Entry02.svg" svgb.exe "Entry03.svg" "Entry03.svg" svgb.exe "Entry04.svg" "Entry04.svg" But i want to decode more than 2000 files, with changing name, and I dont have time to write all the filenames in... So I decided to ask You to help me with this batch file. This batch should do: dirlist a folder (./svginput as example, changeable in the code) save all the filenames and their path (like ./svginput/folder1/image1.svg) send all the data to svgb.exe set up a folder for output (./svgoutput as example) decode the files, with the exact filename and path, but changing the first subdirectory (./svginput to ./svgoutput) I don'T know if it is possible or not, I can only make easy application running with parameters in batch... So please help me! PS: Sorry for the bad english

:: SVGCDC.BAT Usage: svgcdc Source_Folder Dest_Folder @echo off echo. if "%~1"=="" goto :ER01 if "%~2"=="" goto :ER01 if not exist "%~1" goto :ER02 if not exist "%~2" md "%~2" echo. Starting conversion echo. from "%~1" echo. to "%~2" echo. Please wait... pushd "%~1" for %%j in (*.svg) do ( svgb "%%j" "%~2\%%j" echo. "%%~dpnxj" -^> "%~2\%%j" >> %~n0.log ) popd echo. echo. DONE. goto :EOF :ER01 echo. Usage: svgcdc Source_Folder Dest_Folder goto :EOF :ER02 echo. Source Folder "%~1" does not exist goto :EOF :: End_Of_Batch Save it then type e.g. svgcdc C:\svgin D:\svgout The script produces a log of converted files in the folder of svgcdc named SVGCDC.LOG; to view open it by NotePad. If Folders have embedded blanks embrace them by double quotes ". In Windows use backslash \ not slash / as under Unix/Linux. Beware the script was not tersted.

Thanks, the script runs correctly! Any way to make the folder variables editable in the script itself? so I just have to run it! EDIT: A little addition: there are files with .svgb extension too... so i would need to convert those to svg too... and thanks for the fast reply! EDIT2: Ok, tested the batch, but it wont scan subfolders, and I have to place the svgb.exe in the svg source folder...

In Italy now time is late night so, please, be patient and tomoirrow I try to modify the script according to your needs, i.e. - setting a default variable for source and destination folders if no parameters on the command line. - scan the subfolders - scan for .sgvb suffixes. Others needs, sir?

Thanks, here in Hungary was late too... So the needs: -Setting up input-output folders in bat, not in console -Scan for all subfolders -Save subfolder path, and make it to output too ( like this: var1 is the svg in, var2 is svg out. scans svgin and founds this: var1/svgpack1/svg1.svg etcetc, and the output will be var2/svgpack1/svg1.svg) - The command line won't close after decoding - The log should contain errors too ( I had some errors coming from undefined commands in the SVG [SVG is an XML- based vectorgraphic format] and it wasn't in the log, but all the converts -search for the svgb.exe in the folder of the batch, not in the folder of the svginput - scanning for SVGB too, but it's output would be svg I think thats all! And IVO, thanks for the fast help!

You will get what you wish, but i need you explain me the following item that is not clear to me - The log should contain errors too Are the error messages produced by svgb.exe while running and are they in a format suitable to be redirected to a log file? Are they issued to stdout or to stderr? Do you want the messages in the same file as main log or in a separated error log? Does svgb.exe return a a condition code to alert on the fine\bad execution? The work on the other issues is in progress, trust in me. Please contact me by the e-mail private system so I can directly send you the modified script in a better suitable way.
